So they're adding 25% to everything no matter where it comes from?
That seems a bit overboard, and maybe not the government but the agent.
Would it apply to Canadian goods like OPC cards being "repatriated" (something I used on a customs form years ago sending an item back to it's country of origin. The guy I traded with did the same )
